No, but if the house and everything else is in you and your husbands name he will continue to pay the bills if he doesn't want to lose everything.

It actually depends on the state. I'm currently going thru a divorce here in Az which is considered a "No Fault State" (or 50/50). Basically that means it wouldn't matter if either spouse cheated on the other numerous times or whatever. What happens is the court looks at what each spouse brings into the decaying marriage income wise and decides if both can eek out an existence on their own sole income. If one persons income is so much more than the others chances are very good that "spousal maintenance" will be granted to the one with the small income.

Peace!
That depends on what you brought in and out of the relationship and how long it was together.
Is the husband not also equal to you?
Lawyers are great arn't they, get ready for a long depressing process. Maybe you should start looking at all your records and seeing if there is any error or gain.

I would think that as long as you are married then he has a responsibility to help you and if you have children then he certainly has the responsiblity to care for them. You can call several different lawyers for free advise on this subject.
I know for sure after the divorce that if you have children he will have to help you till you have a job and he will still have to pay child support after that.

It depends i know that the wife automatically gets wife support if you had been married for 10 yrs or more. and only if you havent been working the husband has to support you and well also if you have kids.

Usually, regardless of if they have children and how long they have been married, it is whatever the judge says.

Nope.
The divorce can be called the "settlement" too.
